Tiësto to make Essential Mix return with first appearance since 2006

Pete Tong’s legendary broadcast is making a sharp turn from rookies to veteran. Coming off a January occupied by ‘Future Stars’ featuring Kölsch, Friends Within, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, and DJ Snake, the legendary Essential Mix will return to business as usual with none other than Tiësto at the helm. For Tiësto, next week’s two-hour slot will mark his first appearance on the show since a 2006 live broadcast of Global Gathering where he was joined by Fatboy Slim, Deep Dish, and Ferry Corsten. It will be his eighth total Essential Mix exhibit dating back to his first solo outing as DJ Tiësto in 2001.

Update: The upcoming Essential Mix will be considered a special Clublife Afterhours addition, with a deep house and techno selection featuring the likes of artists from Chris Malinchak to Joris Voorn.
